Top 100 US Restaurants 2026

Yelp’s 13th annual list of the best US restaurants showcases a Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse, a pop culture-inspired pizza joint, and everything in between

Key takeaways

  • Yelp’s Top 100 US Restaurants 2026 showcases the highest-reviewed restaurants, diners, fast-casual spots, food halls, and more — all ranked by the Yelp community

  • This year’s hot trends: “grandma-core” dining, Japanese cuisine, and Gen Z-approved dress-up destinations 

  • Yelp’s AI chatbots — Yelp Assistant and Menu Vision — can instantly answer questions and reveal menu details about our 2026 winners

Our biggest reveal of the year is here! We’ve rounded up the latest drool-worthy, Yelper-loved places to eat — just in time for your 2026 restaurant bucket list. Across the US, chefs are plating up memorable, can’t-miss meals at fine-dining rooms, food halls, counter-order favorites, cozy cafes, and wallet-friendly gems that deliver big flavor without the big bill.

Here are some trends we’re seeing for the new year:

“Grandma-core” hits the dinner table. Often called “nonna-stalgia,” this cozy trend encourages diners to step out of their fast-paced lives for old-fashioned, slow-cooked family recipes made with simple ingredients — often served on charmingly mismatched dinnerware in warm settings that remind them of simpler times. You’ll find this trend at Cincinnati’s Pepp & Dolores (#10) and Boston’s Carmelina’s (#91).

Sandwiches steal dinner. Elevated comfort foods have become a round-the-clock staple, with sandwiches leading the charge after dark. This year’s list features 9 sando-slinging spots, including Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que in Kansas (#15) and Stasio’s in Orlando, Florida (#75), both turning humble handhelds into destination-worthy bites.

Breakfast wins all day. What’s more comforting than breakfast? Cafes and all-day brunch spots claim another 9 slots on the 2026 list, including Waffle and Berry (#4) in Honolulu, Hawaii; Comfort Cafe (#5) in San Antonio, Texas and RJ Skillets (#14) in Portland, Oregon.

Japanese flavors take over. Sushi spots, handroll bars, and Nikkei (Japanese-Peruvian) fusion restaurants command 10 spots on the list, including award-winning wood-fire restaurant Noko in Nashville, Tennessee (#24). Other Asian cuisines — such as Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese — add 12 more, including America’s first and only Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse, COTE, in Miami, Florida (#20).

Worth dressing up for. Cozy comfort aside, Yelpers are also voting up special-occasion stunners. Houston’s Taste of Texas (#2) delivers a “prime” Texas steakhouse experience, while New Orleans’ GW Fins (#8) offers white-tablecloth, dress-to-impress seafood dining.

Want to ask questions about the restaurant before you go? Yelp Assistant, our new AI chatbot, has answers — about popular dishes, where to park, even if you can bring your dog. It’s accessible via each restaurant’s Yelp page on the Yelp mobile app.

The new Yelp Assistant can immediately answer questions about restaurants.

How we did it: This is a list of the Top 100 US Restaurants 2026, according to Yelp. We identified businesses in the restaurant category, then ranked those spots using a number of factors, including the total volume and ratings of reviews. When available, all businesses on this list have a passing health score as of November 6, 2025.

Meet Chef Hillary Sterling from our #1 Top Place to Eat:

1. Ci Siamo, New York, New York

Ci Siamo serves about 120 of its bestselling Rigatoni Alla Gricia dishes per day; photo via Maggie C. on Yelp.

Want to relive a visit to Italy, or be inspired to book one? This Hudson Yards spot, part of the acclaimed Danny Meyer restaurant empire, is THE place to have that experience. Yelpers crave the dishes Executive Chef Hillary Sterling lovingly re-creates from her travels through Italy, including the restaurant’s bestseller — Rigatoni Alla Gricia (also the most reviewed on Yelp). The lesser known of four classic Roman pasta dishes (along with cacio e pepe, carbonara, and amatriciana), the gricia delights with simple, peppery, cheesy goodness infused with flavorful Italian guanciale (cured pork cheek). 

But any pasta or pizza on the menu will transport you to an Italian trattoria. The second bestseller, the Cavatelli Olo Scoglio, was inspired by a seafood dish Chef Hillary enjoyed in Nerano, a secluded Campania fishing village near the Amalfi Coast. “Scoglio” means “rock,” so she serves it with house-made cavatelli (a pasta that looks like little stones), then finishes it in crab stock, roasted tomatoes, chunks of crab, green chiles, lemon juice, and marjoram. Another winner: the Stracci. Based on a dish she savored in a trattoria in Verduno, it features braised rabbit with Parmigiano, wine, and Piave cheese. And don’t miss Chef’s favorite entree, the Pizza Bianca, also inspired by the trip to Verduno. “It has all the things you want — crusty bread, garlic, oil, aioli,” she says. “Ci Siamo lives up to the Danny Meyer reputation — refined Italian cooking with soul,” raves Raymond Y.

Fun fact: For the Rigatoni Alla Gricia, Chef Hillary aims for the exact right cracks of pepper, using a specific blend of peppercorns from a specific purveyor, along with a special pepper mill. (“I sound like bananas here,” she jokes, about her attention to every detail.)

Yelpers say: “Ci Siamo is all parts Italian, with a modern, unique spin. For pastas, the Rigatoni Alla Gricia is amazing — the guanciale is perfectly crispy, and perfectly cuts through the [sauce]. If you want to go more decadent, the Stracci with rabbit and Parmesan is *chef’s kiss*.” —Yelp Elite Natalie C., a frequent Italian food reviewer on Yelp

2. Taste of Texas, Houston, Texas

At this iconic 50-year-old steakhouse, you can walk into the kitchen and hand-pick your own cut of beef. “We like customers to see what they’re eating,” says Edd Hendee, who founded the Texas institution with wife Nina in 1977. That transparency defines the family-run restaurant, where the Hendees work daily with their daughter, executive chef Lisa Blackard. The star of the show? Certified Angus Beef steaks, wet-aged for tenderness and flavor, that “melt like butter in your mouth.” Popular cuts include a 6-ounce filet with bearnaise sauce and optional bacon, and a “beyond exceptional” 16-ounce ribeye with garlic butter. (“Once you’ve had that first bite, restraint becomes meaningless,” says Takumi A.) The well-stocked salad/appetizer bar is “the best anywhere around,” featuring shaveable blocks of cheese, multiple fresh breads and spreads, and scratch-made salad dressings. 

Diners enjoy browsing the historic Texas artifacts on display, including interior chapel doors from the Alamo. Thousands of schoolchildren also visit Taste of Texas on field trips every year, where they tour the kitchen and learn about Texas history and the food industry. Some end up working their way through high school and college at the restaurant, which offers both career and financial counseling to young employees. “Many of them have gone into the restaurant business,” Nina says proudly. Other employees are still working there after 30 or 40 years. That loyalty leads to consistent praise for the “warm Texas hospitality” that keeps diners coming back.

Yelpers say: “Been here a half-dozen times over the years, and it’s always amazing. Awesome historic Texas memorabilia adorns the walls; high ceilings, first-rate service, an amazing salad bar — and Texas-sized steaks. I went with the 18-oz. ribeye, [which] was incredible. Our CEO, from Italy, said [his] filet was the best he has had.” —Yelp Elite Dave M. 

3. NAM Kitchen, Gardena, California

With more than 1,600 5-star reviews and “lines out the door,” Chef Nam Lam’s Vietnamese-Peruvian spot is helping elevate Southern California’s fusion scene to new heights. The menu bridges Saigon and Lima with dishes like pho — which some Yelpers call “the best I’ve ever eaten” — simmered for 48 hours with a secret blend of fresh herbs. (Fans recommend the versions with long-braised rib bones or tender filet mignon.) Lomo saltado, the Peruvian stir-fry, is updated with Vietnamese techniques — it’s “an occasion to eat french fries with chopsticks,” says Yelp Elite All-Star Maya D. Reviewers also recommend the “rich and comforting” Oxtail Fried Rice, while Tiger Prawn Garlic Noodles are another “star of the show.”

Born in Vietnam to a family with Vietnamese, Chinese, and Khmer culinary roots, Chef Nam opened NAM Kitchen to show diners “what real Vietnamese flavors are,” he says. Now, when customers walk in, “they can smell the authentic pho” as it’s meticulously prepared. Also a trained bartender, Chef Nam rounds out the meal with drinks such as June Lemon (yuzu) with peach puree or Coco Matcha with fresh coconut water and organic matcha foam. According to fans, it’s an “amazing experience from start to finish.”

Insider tip: Get unlimited noodle refills with your dine-in pho order.

Yelpers say: “Everything we ordered was absolutely fantastic. We especially loved the Oxtail Fried Rice, [which] was by far my favorite. Solid 5/5. Lomo Saltado — these fries are special, crispy and chewy at the same time. Garlic Ribeye Noodles was a showstopper…the cilantro aioli that comes with it is drinkable. Can’t go wrong with any of the drinks, but the Taro Coffee was our favorite.” —Yelp Elite Richie F.

4. Waffle and Berry, Honolulu, Hawaii

When a waiter dreams for 30 years about the perfect presentation of his favorite comfort food (and secretly practices behind the scenes at other restaurants), the result is this 5-star all-day breakfast-and-brunch spot that’s a fave among Waikiki locals and travelers. Owner Cali, a waffle-whisperer of sorts, manages each iron until the output meets his high standards. Yelpers praise his waffles as “perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside” (“just the way I like them,” says Yelp Elite Miguel A., echoing the sentiment of many waffle connoisseurs). The crispiness also ensures they can hold up to a mountain of creamy and fruity toppings: “I do my best with every single order, just as if there’s not an order in front or behind it,” says Cali, who legally changed his name to the single moniker during his former oil painting days — and whose plating still reflects those artistic skills.

Meanwhile, Cali’s açaí bowls have caught up to waffles in popularity, overtaking them as Yelpers’ favorite dish and making this off-the-beaten-path spot one of the best-kept secrets for the icy, fruity bowls as well. For those who want both craveable treats, the Kireina Hana waffle features an açaí topping and gets praise for being “a great mixture of flavors.” 

The spot is a little hard to find (accessible only off the Royal Hawaiian Avenue entrance to Waikiki Shopping Plaza), but Yelpers say it’s worth the search; photo via David M. on Yelp. Owner Cali; photo courtesy of Waffle and Berry.

Yelpers say: “Such a great experience! I ordered an açaí bowl along with two side waffles, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The açaí was perfectly blended, not too icy, not too sweet, and the waffles were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, exactly how you want them. What really made the visit stand out, though, was the service. The staff was genuinely warm and welcoming, and they went above and beyond — definitely not something you see every day.” —Kyle N., a frequent açaí bowl reviewer on Yelp

5. Comfort Cafe – San Antonio, San Antonio, Texas

The Alamo Benny — with its chipotle Hollandaise sauce — is one of seven popular eggs Benedict dishes on the menu; photo via Elton H. on Yelp.

At this San Antonio brunch spot, every dish helps someone rebuild their life. Proceeds from the nonprofit business support SerenityStar, a spiritual-based addiction recovery program. The cafe operates on a “pay what you can” model — with a suggested $15 (cash only) per meal — and is staffed entirely by people working through recovery. “The cafe is service work for people who come through the program,” explains Jaycee Clark, who manages the restaurant with co-head chef Justin Motl. “In recovery, we say you can’t keep it unless you give it away.” 

The menu delivers “unbridled peak breakfast greatness,” from Oreo-stuffed French toast to the show-stopping Crabby Benny (featuring fresh-made crab cakes and lemon Hollandaise). “The brown sugar pecan pancakes were outstanding; fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth,” says Alyssa B. Other favorites include the “fantastic” San Antonio Burger with a beef-chorizo patty topped with cheese, bacon, a fried egg, and chipotle mayo. Open only Fridays through Sundays, expect weekend lines out the door — a testament to both the mission and the scratch-made dishes. An adjacent bakery, Sweet Serenity, opened last summer, and there’s another cafe location in Smithville, where founders Teri and Rosie Lopez first launched the concept in 2010.

Yelpers say: “We’ve been going to this wonderful spot for years and it never disappoints! This time I decided to get their corned beef hash. The potatoes and corned beef are cooked perfectly and the eggs were just right — everything tasted perfect! Portions are big, so go with an empty stomach or leave with extras. The service is always friendly and they’re open to share the program that they’re in, which really connects the servers to the diners.” —Johanna A.

6. Adela’s Country Eatery, Kaneohe, Honolulu, Hawaii

At this tiny takeout counter on Oahu’s windward side, the noodles are local celebrities. Co-owners Millie Chan and Adela Visitacion transform locally grown produce, purple Okinawan sweet potatoes, starchy ulu (breadfruit), taro, avocado, and nutrient-rich moringa leaves into handmade pastas so good, they’ve landed Adela’s on Yelp’s Top 100 list for the third time. Richard Chan, Adela’s agriculture director, sources much of the produce from nearby farms and even neighbors’ backyards. “We always try to show people the best of Hawaii,” he says. 

The menu is fully customizable: Choose from six colorful noodles, 10 sauces, and nine toppings like crispy lechon, garlic shrimp, or fall-apart braised short ribs. “Our favorite was the Lechon Malunggay Pasta — the lechon [pork belly] was super-crispy; you can tell that the noodles are fresh and homemade with every bite,” says Yelp Elite Yvonne F. Others praise the Taro Pasta with coconut cream sauce (“so creamy with a nice kick”) or buttery Garlic Ulu Noodles with mushrooms. Don’t skip the Ube Cheesecake, which is “dense but fluffy at the same time.” There’s no dine-in, but locals recommend taking your plate to nearby Kāneʻohe Beach Park for a meal with a view.

Yelpers say: “We were greeted very kindly by the owner, Millie, who broke down everything on their menu. I went with the Okinawan sweet potato ube pasta with lechon and garlic. Let me tell you, this is one of the best noodle dishes I’ve ever eaten! The lechon went so well with the pasta, red onion, green onion, and tomato. Customer service [was] very warm, kind, and personable.” —Yelp Elite Dennis R. 

7. Broken Mouth, Los Angeles, California

The Spam Musubi is a crowd favorite, boasting 607 reviews on Yelp; photo via Sam M. on Yelp.

In Hawaii, “broke da mouth” describes food so delicious you can barely slow down to chew — and that’s exactly what diners experience at this Korean-Hawaiian gem tucked inside a popular LA food hall (now making its fourth Top 10 appearance on our annual Top 100 list). Chef-owner Tim Lee, who describes himself as “Korean by blood, Hawaiian at heart,” built the menu around his Oahu childhood: family dinners, his uncle’s Honolulu restaurant, and the flavors he couldn’t find after moving to the mainland. The result is a compact lineup of plate lunches that Yelpers call “genuine home-cooked food made with love.”

Hawaiian transplants and native Angelenos alike praise the signature Meat Jun — 24-hour-marinated ribeye, egg-battered and pan-fried — as “one of those meals that make you realize life is beautiful.” But the top attraction, according to hundreds of 5-star reviews, is the “bursting with flavor” shell-on shrimp pan-fried in garlic butter. Tim swaps out traditional white rice with his mother’s purple multigrain japgokbap, and the creamy Potato-Mac salad, which is studded with boiled egg, “makes everything better.” Beyond the food, regulars rave about Tim’s Aloha spirit — he’s “incredibly friendly and hospitable, making you feel right at home.”

Yelpers say: “The buzz is real! The food is top quality, prepared with care. Tim Lee, the owner, knows that kindness and a smile can make customers feel appreciated. We ordered the famous Meat Jun, egg-battered strips of ribeye, [which was] tender and so tasty. The meat is perfectly seasoned and so fresh, it melts in your mouth. Totally hits the spot, like comfort food should! The purple rice was beautiful and tasty, [and] the potato mac salad was perfection.” —Yelp Elite April F. 

8. GW Fins, New Orleans, Louisiana

The wildly popular Tempura Fin Wings (prepared in Korean dressing) are a unique cut of fish, designed so guests can “pick them up and eat them like a chicken wing,” according to Chef Michael Nelson; photo via GW Fins on Yelp.

Seafood prepared using popular steak and chicken techniques is the hallmark of this fine-dining restaurant. Executive Chef Michael Nelson has perfected two unique processes: dry-aging fish a la steakhouse style; and serving lesser-known but sustainable cuts of fish that diners find delicious. “People get very excited about [these lesser familiar cuts],” he says. “Some of the meatier parts of the fish — around the collar and the belly — actually have a lot more flavor, similar to fried chicken, where dark-meat closer to the bone has more fat and flavor.” The super-popular Tempura Fin Wings, for instance, are prepared in a way that diners can actually pick them up by the fin and eat them like a chicken wing. “The wings were so good we ordered them again,” says Yelper Jack K. 

The dry-aging program “really brings out these layers of flavor that are already within the fish, but — just like beef is aged before you eat it — a lot of the flavors are released into the meat [over time],” including a nice umami flavor, explains Chef Mike. He ages big primal cuts — mostly tuna and swordfish — for 14 to 28 days and serves them like high-end steaks, named for their cut and fat content (filet mignon, New York strip, or ribeye). The dry-aged cuts aren’t available every day (due to fishing boat schedules and a lengthier aging process). But Yelper Chuck B. advises: “If the dry-aged tuna is available… get it! Do not pass go, do not collect $200; just order the tuna! I’ve been to many Michelin-starred restaurants, and this dish is absolutely one of the best I’ve ever had.”    

Insider tip: The signature “Scalibut” dish practically has its own fan club. Seared scallops “have the best flavor in the seafood world,” according to Chef Mike. “But not everybody likes the texture.” So he found a way for everyone to enjoy them, coating a halibut filet with a scallop “crust.”

Yelpers say: “My favorite meal of all time! I’m already dreaming of coming back. Everything was better than the previous bite. My favorite were the lobster dumplings — melt-in-your-mouth, delicate little perfections. And the Scalibut was such a fun little treat: Halibut on sea scallops on a bed of shrimp risotto with peas and the most delicious buttery sauce — is this heaven?!” —Yelp Elite Shruti Y., a frequent seafood reviewer on Yelp

9. Slackwater — Salt Lake City, Salt Lake City, Utah

The California Sunrise pizza — featuring green goddess dressing, roasted chicken, and peppered bacon, all topped with fresh avocado and chiffonade spinach — is one of the bestsellers; photo via Slackwater SLC on Yelp.

For those who love their pizzas with a side of pop culture, this popular Utah chain hits the spot. Menu headliners include a super-spicy pizza called Tastes Like Burning (from “The Simpsons”) and a Mulligatawny Soup (“Seinfeld”), as well as the Shakedown Grill (Grateful Dead) February special — a five-cheese grilled sandwich inside a calzone with capicola and ham, served with a tomato bisque for dipping. Rotating monthly specials are suggested by the entire team based on their travels or favorite TV shows (which Executive Chef Sam Fisher then whips into something special with his “incredible palate,” says co-owner Blake Hirschi). If diners love it, it gets added to the regular menu. (Top-selling Hot Honey Double Pepperoni pizza, for instance, started this way.) And the secret to Slackwater’s “absolutely yummy,” “melt-in-your-mouth,” craveable pizza crust? A 15-year-old yeast starter that they cultivated and continually propagate.

Yelpers also love the eye-popping, 300-strong beer menu here: It’s tailored to each of the five Slackwater locations based on locals’ tastes and the owners’ beer-hunting around the world. Blake praises Salt Lake City for being on the leading edge of beer trends and leaning into the latest national preferences (for German-style lagers and pilsners, as well as sours). “Salt Lake City definitely has that new-wave taste for craft beer,” he says.

Yelpers say: “I don’t know what sort of magic they infuse in their pizza, but yassssss! The crust is almost flaky and melt-in-your-mouth, with perhaps a honey sweetness. And the [pizza] flavor combos are really fun. I was really not expecting the extensive beer menu: beer from around the world and even from an obscure, small-town brewery in Greeley, CO (WeldWerks). Well done, Slackwater!” —Yelp Elite Kaysha R. 

10. Pepp & Dolores, Cincinnati, Ohio

The Limone Pasta is a Yelper fave, with handmade spaghetti, Meyer lemon, chili flakes, Parmigiano-Reggiano, garlic breadcrumbs, and ricotta cheese; photo via Pepp & Dolores on Yelp.

Reservations are a must at this always-hoppin’ Cincy fave, known for its comforting, nonna-inspired Italian food and hospitality. Brother-owners Joe and John Lanni founded the restaurant to honor their Italian-Canadian grandparents — Pepp and Dolores. The menu features Grandma Dolores’ meals, like traditional, slow-simmered, tomato-based “Sunday sauce” (served here over spaghetti with a veal and pork meatball and braised pork shoulder), as well as her warm hospitality: “When we went to her house, she was always ready with the foods we loved. And when we left, she’d cry in the driveway.” That comfort and homey feeling is a top priority for the brothers, who pay attention to diners’ favorites, take their requests seriously (dessert was recently added to the menu after several customer asks), and make everyone feel welcome (though they draw the line at driveway crying).

The kitchen (which can be seen from the street) is always busy whipping up handmade pastas for popular entrees, like the “must-order” Spicy Vodka Pasta or the bestselling, “light and delicious” Limone Pasta. And don’t forget that new dessert, two different flavors of soft-serve gelato — hazelnut-chocolate or vanilla mascarpone — that can be dressed with olive oil, sea salt, crushed pistachios, or dusted with crushed Amaretti cookies.

Fun fact: The 197 framed photos lining the walls downstairs are actual family photos that Joe and his brother gathered from cousins, aunts, and uncles.

Yelpers say: “Stunning, gorgeous, delicious! My first time in the great state of Ohio, and the food here really sealed the deal for me. So many vegetarian options, lovely ambiance, incredibly friendly staff, and obviously amazing food! I got the Dunk (bread app) and the Pomodoro Pasta. No notes — I need to come back and eat both again, and then inhale everything else on the menu!” —Yelp Elite Paayal J., a frequent Italian food reviewer on Yelp
